I knew that this alliance was going to end up with Grant back with the team -,- At least it looks like everyone doesn't approve of it but will have to suck it up to complete the mission. And how the hell did Skye manage to get back to them so fast? I'm guessing Jiaying and Gordon let her go back to Coulson.
They are going to teh head of teh snake. DAMN! and it's not teh season finale yet. I dunno when ill be watching AOU so someone have tot ell me how the hell they will tie things.
No, Coulson, that is an awesome plan, because the original team is back!!! :-D ... Fitzsimmons... and who the hell talked/threatened/persuaded Skye into sitting next to Ward?!?! Guess her straw was the shortest ;-)
Ward is there for one mission, doesn't mean he's back on the team, you heard him and Kara, they're plotting something. I don't think this scene has anything to do with shipping, I think the episode will show how much things have changed by paralleling the old team, like in this scene, but I don't think this will be permanent. I think Ward will continue to be the guy that in some moments they need help from and in most moments they're going to be against.
You know what I like the most about AoS? The lack of focus on romance. Oh, there is some, but it is always in the background and always there to further the plot somehow. If some fans want to ship, let them have their fun. But the show is very low key in this regard.
Looks like the bands back together. This outta be fun.
*Nothing hashes out bad blood like being in a confined space for a period of time. The plane ride should be interesting and it might be illuminating. I wouldn't assume that it will all be about bashing Ward. Depending on what is said they might all come out with a changed perspective.
*The team is flying right into the lion's den. This will get intense to say the least. Because this episode will launch the events of the Avengers 2, the situation will need to be so overwhelming that they'll have to call in the Avengers. This means that either Lincoln or Mike might not survive.
Skye is going to get/take the blame for Lincoln's capture. As much as she and the Inhumans know, she called Shield, Shield turned up. The episode laid the ground for Skye having to choose between the two groups.
I think that he will help them out loads even save a few of the teams lives a couple of times these next few eps... Then coulsom will let him walk. Then next seasom itll show Wards been working for coulson off the grid like deathlock has thiss season
Maybe! I'm just hoping the OT6 will be back permanently next season now that the Huntingbird spin-off is in the works (I'll miss them with the team but hey, own show, so it works out).
Uh, excuse me? Jiaying seemed pretty well aware of what SHIELD is "Melinda", why wouldn't she know about HYDRA at least to some extent? She WAS captured by them twice in the past, after all.
No you misunderstand the point, I didn't mean she and the rest don't know about hydra, what I meant was they don't know about hydra tracking Gordon by his power. Therefore the information they might have is, Skye called Shield, Shield turned up, Lincoln has been captured. There was nothing in that segment that suggests they would have no Hydra was also on site and were the ones that took Lincoln.
You're welcome! I know the scenes go by way too fast in the promo so that's why I decided to take a screenshot to show everyone :) And I'm so happy FitzSimmons are back together as well! I would love if there was a scene of my science babies just having a nice chat.
Really, did you miss the reaction to her name, or that he didn't pause in going after Coulson? Yeah Ward isn't over it, and I don't have faith in the writers after last night.
the inhumans DO know it's hydra. their leader, skye's mother, knows them very well indeed (remember what she's bn through cuz of whitaker or however that guy's name was spelled?) and they've been losing people for a while now...eg that kid that went backpacking? remember that talk she has with gordon? whether it could be 'them' and how 'they' managed to track the kid? who do u think the 'they' referred to?
But they don't know Hydra was on site, they will know cause Skye will tell ther (you know she will) that Shield knew to come. Honestly I get the impression from Jiaying that she's not really going to care which it was. The issue will be Skye exposing the community.
I would hope Skye insists on being on the mission, even if it means she has to work with Ward, in order to save Lincoln - he got captured because he'd been there to protect her.
The production values for this episode look impressive, especially that shot of the Hydra base in the Arctic location (?). Since the Avengers have a big battle with Hydra in the snow in Age of Ultron, it looks like the crossover is taking shape... we might even see them launch an attack on the same facility that Coulson and crew are currently targeting.
Also interested in seeing more of Raina's powers; perhaps being aware of them will give her some degree of control over what she sees. And really hoping that Lincoln and Mike are okay.
As for Ward working with the team again... I wasn't too bothered by how it was handled in yesterday's episode, so I'm going to take the wait-and-see approach here. As long as it's clear that they're making an ad-hoc alliance with him for the sake of a common goal, and no one has any intention of forgiving him, trusting him, or accepting him back into the team, I can stomach it.
Because Lincoln deserves to have Hydra do horrible experiments on and eventually murder him, after he put himself on the line to protect Skye? Why, because he could potentially hinder your beloved Skyeward?
Either you believe he wasn't also captured, which wouldn't be the case (he's a powered individual, and we just saw Hydra is unknowingly tracking inhumans) ,OR you believe he was captured and once again believe the inhumans are not connected to skye. SHE IS AN INHUMAN. Of course she feels responsible, it is partially her fault he was captured.
I now also think Cal might kill/injure "Gordo", making Raina want to use her gifts to help them protect HER PEOPLE.
If the writers have any ideas of "skyward" now I think they might be a couple of cans short of a six pack. I don't care if Lincoln becomes a love interest, but skye could be dating ultron for all I care, it would probably make more sense xD
DD has really any connection except easter eggs, (like the Creel poster) I'm betting you could watch on the Netflix shos without having it connect back to either the films or AoS except for one liners like what they were calling the Battle of New York. And after last nights episode my interest level in AoS has fallen off.
Good points. I was genuinely curious why it had to be one or the other, but of you're not enjoying AoS then that's your choice. I have to admit, DD was awesome.
I was but I find the way the writers have forced Ward back into the team to be a jump too far, as a character he's shown zero redeeming qualities, yet it's hey lets trust him with a loaded gun at my back, cause he's never killed agents before...
When you say it like that it's hard to argue that logic. I think a popular theory about Ward being Paladin might end up being true after all, when he shouldn't have been allowed to join the team on the mission. His part was really done when he retrieved Barchi
I still can't believe he has no clue about what happened to her. Would be great if she took him by surprise. On the promo he has his smug face saying "feels like old times" to Skye. He is asking to be quaked.
I don't think the team will even be together at the end of the season much less Ward with them. At least this is what we have been teased. We are heading to civil war storyline so they will all split up. I understand your concern, i'm afraid of this as well, but i still holding out to see the remain episode before throwing the towel.
I can see May breaking off if Theta is a gifted taskforce, FizSimmon's after what we seen I don't think so. Skye is going to have to decide which family to stay with, but yeah with Hunter and Bobbi leaving Coulson is going to need another Specialist, so Ward I don't think is going anywhere.
Maybe after the last three episodes have aired I take a look at spoilers and see if it's worth the time watching them but right now, fairly sure I'm just not going to bother.
Ward is properly gonna be in the spin off. That's the only way to not piss off people who don't like Ward and to keep those who still ship SkyeWard happy since "there might be chance" of it happening. So yup Ward is either going to the new show or he's dying. The writers aren't idiots, I'm pretty sure they know what they're doing.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
I'M FIEN. TOTALLY FINE. Absolutely can't wait until next week!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a bumpy ride. I hope someone packed some Dramamine.
ReplyDeleteOh. This looks epic! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteFitzsimmons together yassss!!!
ReplyDeleteI knew that this alliance was going to end up with Grant back with the team -,- At least it looks like everyone doesn't approve of it but will have to suck it up to complete the mission. And how the hell did Skye manage to get back to them so fast? I'm guessing Jiaying and Gordon let her go back to Coulson.
ReplyDeleteI was sure we would see FitzSimmons together again until the season finale. What a nice surprise this is. :)
ReplyDeleteLOL, I really hope someone doesn't get sick.
ReplyDeleteSKYEWARD - FITZSIMMONS
ReplyDeleteI think it's new. The background looks different.
ReplyDeleteCAN'T WAIT!!
ReplyDeleteWhat happened at the end of the fre met of my enemy, my tv wasn't working.
ReplyDeleteThey are going to teh head of teh snake. DAMN! and it's not teh season finale yet. I dunno when ill be watching AOU so someone have tot ell me how the hell they will tie things.
ReplyDeleteNo, Coulson, that is an awesome plan, because the original team is back!!! :-D ... Fitzsimmons... and who the hell talked/threatened/persuaded Skye into sitting next to Ward?!?! Guess her straw was the shortest ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat team! Finally.
ReplyDeleteOK, it was much worse than I thought the writers would produce.
ReplyDeleteHope the spin off avoids the shippers.
Looks like an old scene to me they show another scene of Ward in the Cell and Skye sitting outside of it.
ReplyDeleteO6 FUCK YEAH =D
ReplyDeletethat WAS Skye next to Ward right?
ReplyDeleteand don't they looks so badass in Tac gear?!
ReplyDeleteCoulson turned himself in to Bobbi and Mack
ReplyDeleteit's our FULL team right? Coulson, May, Skye, Ward, Jemma and Leo?
ReplyDeleteAnd the gang is back together again "like old times". I'm so happy.
ReplyDeleteAWESOME!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYes because this screams shipperific.
ReplyDeleteDamn surprised Skye hasn't crushed Ward under a pile of rock yet.
ReplyDeleteYeah that's odd.
ReplyDeleteWard is there for one mission, doesn't mean he's back on the team, you heard him and Kara, they're plotting something. I don't think this scene has anything to do with shipping, I think the episode will show how much things have changed by paralleling the old team, like in this scene, but I don't think this will be permanent. I think Ward will continue to be the guy that in some moments they need help from and in most moments they're going to be against.
ReplyDeleteIf Hydra have Lincoln, Skye working with Coulson is probably their best chance of getting him back.
ReplyDeleteConsidering she is the one with power to take down the plane on her own i would make sure she is far away as possible from him.
ReplyDeleteI think Skye and Ward are dead.
ReplyDeleteand AWESOME but how the heck did Skye leave Afterlife?! and i am so GLAD she left, she basically considered herself NOT one of the Inhumans
ReplyDeleteI think she'll be sent/want to come, as part of a joint effort to rescue Lincoln/Deathlok + take down HYDRA.
ReplyDeleteYou know what I like the most about AoS? The lack of focus on romance. Oh, there is some, but it is always in the background and always there to further the plot somehow. If some fans want to ship, let them have their fun. But the show is very low key in this regard.
ReplyDeleteYES
ReplyDeleteMe too. I'm just waiting for the monent to see her quake him if even says sexual stuff to her.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the bands back together. This outta be fun.
ReplyDelete*Nothing hashes out bad blood like being in a confined space for a period of time. The plane ride should be interesting and it might be illuminating. I wouldn't assume that it will all be about bashing Ward. Depending on what is said they might all come out with a changed perspective.

Do you reckon ward willl actually end up getting his memories wiped? (Tahiti) cause that would be soooooo shit
ReplyDeleteSkye is going to get/take the blame for Lincoln's capture. As much as she and the Inhumans know, she called Shield, Shield turned up. The episode laid the ground for Skye having to choose between the two groups.
ReplyDeleteThe Inhuman's don't know it's Hydra, most likely given her phone call they think it's Shield.
ReplyDeleteGood that DD was renewed, think I'm going to be giving AoS a pass from now on...
ReplyDeleteI think that he will help them out loads even save a few of the teams lives a couple of times these next few eps... Then coulsom will let him walk. Then next seasom itll show Wards been working for coulson off the grid like deathlock has thiss season
ReplyDeleteMaybe! I'm just hoping the OT6 will be back permanently next season now that the Huntingbird spin-off is in the works (I'll miss them with the team but hey, own show, so it works out).
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting the pic! I love love love that Fitz and Simmons are back together. I would love it even more if they had a nice conversation too...
ReplyDeleteIf it gets a third season I'd put money on it happening after last night.
ReplyDeleteUh, excuse me? Jiaying seemed pretty well aware of what SHIELD is "Melinda", why wouldn't she know about HYDRA at least to some extent? She WAS captured by them twice in the past, after all.
ReplyDeleteNo you misunderstand the point, I didn't mean she and the rest don't know about hydra, what I meant was they don't know about hydra tracking Gordon by his power. Therefore the information they might have is, Skye called Shield, Shield turned up, Lincoln has been captured. There was nothing in that segment that suggests they would have no Hydra was also on site and were the ones that took Lincoln.
ReplyDeleteI see. Yeah, I guess you may be right on that one, that seems to be a constant in this half a season.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! I know the scenes go by way too fast in the promo so that's why I decided to take a screenshot to show everyone :) And I'm so happy FitzSimmons are back together as well! I would love if there was a scene of my science babies just having a nice chat.
ReplyDeleteYea, I actually rewound and paused it last night to make sure my eyes weren't deceiving me!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what goes down.
Yeah you're going to need to convince me more. Particularly since Skye shot Ward four times and he seems to have taken the hint.
ReplyDeleteReally, did you miss the reaction to her name, or that he didn't pause in going after Coulson? Yeah Ward isn't over it, and I don't have faith in the writers after last night.
ReplyDeletethe inhumans DO know it's hydra. their leader, skye's mother, knows them very well indeed (remember what she's bn through cuz of whitaker or however that guy's name was spelled?) and they've been losing people for a while now...eg that kid that went backpacking? remember that talk she has with gordon? whether it could be 'them' and how 'they' managed to track the kid? who do u think the 'they' referred to?
ReplyDeleteI think that the person next to Ward is Agent 33 with Skye's face.. I don't know why. But maybe so they will give them Skye?..
ReplyDeleteBut they don't know Hydra was on site, they will know cause Skye will tell ther (you know she will) that Shield knew to come. Honestly I get the impression from Jiaying that she's not really going to care which it was. The issue will be Skye exposing the community.
ReplyDeleteLOL, now that you mention it, not a smart move at all.
ReplyDeleteSince Coulson is the one who recruited Ward, HE should be the one to have to sit next to him on the plane.
I would hope Skye insists on being on the mission, even if it means she has to work with Ward, in order to save Lincoln - he got captured because he'd been there to protect her.
ReplyDeleteIf I were her, I doubt I'd be capable of such restraint. Kudos.
ReplyDeleteImagine if she had been there when Ward gave that smug little "How've you been, Fitz?"... suffice to say, I doubt he would have lived to regret it.
ReplyDeleteIt's a new scene, he didn't say that when he confronted Ward in his cell (Season 2, episode 3).
ReplyDeleteJUST Mike not Lincoln
ReplyDeletebut before that Bobbie better be FULL-on Coulson's SHIELD
ReplyDeletefor real?
ReplyDeletei think i saw snow in the promo so maybe those guys that The Avengers are fighting in the snow ARE Hydra
ReplyDeleteConsidering how the writers are playing this out, pretty much.
ReplyDeleteThe production values for this episode look impressive, especially that shot of the Hydra base in the Arctic location (?). Since the Avengers have a big battle with Hydra in the snow in Age of Ultron, it looks like the crossover is taking shape... we might even see them launch an attack on the same facility that Coulson and crew are currently targeting.

Oh, she will be!

ReplyDeleteHow does that work?
ReplyDeleteSurely since they are part of the same universe, and air in completely different media, it would make sense to watch both?
DD has really any connection except easter eggs, (like the Creel poster) I'm betting you could watch on the Netflix shos without having it connect back to either the films or AoS except for one liners like what they were calling the Battle of New York. And after last nights episode my interest level in AoS has fallen off.
ReplyDeleteAfter last night I think they are going to take it with Ward being back as a permant member. To me the whol episode was forced.
ReplyDeleteNo then the Shippers would be unhappy...
ReplyDeleteGood points. I was genuinely curious why it had to be one or the other, but of you're not enjoying AoS then that's your choice.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit, DD was awesome.
I was but I find the way the writers have forced Ward back into the team to be a jump too far, as a character he's shown zero redeeming qualities, yet it's hey lets trust him with a loaded gun at my back, cause he's never killed agents before...
ReplyDeleteEvery male but Ward deserves death, just in case...
ReplyDeleteWhen you say it like that it's hard to argue that logic. I think a popular theory about Ward being Paladin might end up being true after all, when he shouldn't have been allowed to join the team on the mission. His part was really done when he retrieved Barchi

ReplyDeleteAnd it's clear he didn't even do that right, Barchi was playing everyone.

Anyone else think simmons knows what's in that box
ReplyDeleteWard is properly gonna be in the spin off. That's the only way to not piss off people who don't like Ward and to keep those who still ship SkyeWard happy since "there might be chance" of it happening. So yup Ward is either going to the new show or he's dying. The writers aren't idiots, I'm pretty sure they know what they're doing.
ReplyDeleteMostly I'm curious to see how it ties the movie to the show...
ReplyDeleteIt still looks like Bahski is working on Ward's benefit BTW...
